Hello, I'm looking for EVERYONE who has had experience with a pouch/vaginal fistula. I've had my pouch for over 20 years - no problems - developed a fistula about 1.5 years ago. They tried a minimally invasive repair at Mayo in Rochester, MN but it failed. They can't enter rectally or I will lose all continence - entered vaginally and stitched it up but didn't divert - which was the error I'm sure. However, may not have even worked with a diversion. Going back to my original surgeon at the Univ of MN and want to know if anyone's had one of these repaired successfully and what was done. Thank you!
